Ehlers Danlos & Connective Tissue Disorders

Living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), hypermobility syndrome, and/or Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) often means managing a long list of symptoms—pain, fatigue, dizziness, brain fog, and joint instability—while feeling like no one truly understands what you’re going through. At Hall way to Independence, we specialize in helping clients with complex conditions feel seen, supported, and empowered through a science-backed, whole-person approach.

How We Can Help

🧠 Improved Neurological Body Awareness

With EDS and POTS, the nervous system can become sensitive or disconnected from accurate body signals. We use neuro re-education and sensory integration techniques to help retrain the brain and body to work together more efficiently. This can improve nervous system regulation, balance, movement control, proprioception, and reduce problematic movement patterns.

Joint Protection & Pain Management

Using adaptive tools, manual therapy, myofascial release, joint stabilization techniques, and supportive movement strategies, we help protect your joints and reduce chronic pain while maintaining function and independence. One way to protect joints that easily bend to extremes, is to brace them. We provide measurements for custom ring splints as well as off-the-shelf splints and braces for other joints.

🏡 In-Home Functional Assessments

We assess your home environment and daily routines to identify areas of strain or risk. From there, we develop realistic, sustainable solutions that make daily tasks easier and safer.

🧘‍♀️ Energy Conservation & Pacing Strategies

We’ll teach you how to manage energy throughout your day with practical pacing tools that reduce crashes and flare-ups—so you can stay engaged in the things that matter to you.

🧂 Autonomic Regulation Support

We offer tailored education and strategies for managing autonomic symptoms, such as orthostatic intolerance, tachycardia, and brain fog. Tired of just being told to increase hydration, salt intake, and compression use? Let us help you develop additional strategies to improve regulation of the autonomic nervous system and get you back to your normal activities.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Caregiver Education & Family Coaching

Chronic conditions affect the whole household. We provide the education and training your support system needs to confidently assist you without burnout.
